I believe this is a regression related to the move to Cygwin tcl8.5
which is a "unix" build and does not understand Windows file paths.

A workaround would be to specify the location of the .epk file using a
POSIX-style file path at a Cygwin bash prompt:

   cd /opt/ecos/packages
   tclsh ecosadmin.tcl add /home/myUsername/myPackages.epk

Please raise a bug report against ConfigTool in bugzilla:
